3. BTH/Lucas Magneto/Electrical Parts

This item listing is for a pair (two) brass 2mm x 4mm round head rivets, for use when fitting new BTH KD1 serial number or competition plates (see Items 0369/0370/0371 for these). The normal original size of BTH rivet was 1.6mm x 3mm (see item number 0469 for these), but often in removing these the hole is opened slightly, hence these slighlty oversize rivets. These rivets are brass, and slightly harder than the similar aluminum oversize rivets (item 0467) which we also sell. If not sure, it is a good idea to buy a set of both

This item listing is for a pair (two) stainless steel 1.6mm x 3mm round head rivets, for use when fitting new BTH KD1 serial number or competition plates (see Items 0369/0370/0371 for these). This was the normal original size of BTH rivets, so was a direct replacement. If you have had to drill out the original rivet, and are worried it may now be oversize - then we also sell oversize rivets either aluminium (item 0467) or brass (item 0468). If not sure, it is a good idea to buy a set of both

Rubber cable shroud to stop water running down the advance\retard cable and into the mechanism. This shroud is of the type fitted to BTH KD1 magnetos, but is also very similar to the Lucas variety as well (and can be used on both)

This replica Lucas MT110 light unit was standard fitment on the Norton International through the 1930's/ It is fitted with a twin filament Rear Light/Stop Light bulb as well - which on modern roads I think is essential. Although made by a proprietary supplier (and probably made in China), I have to say I was really impressed by the quality of this unit, it looks very nice.

Although I have not been able to find reference to this unit being fitted to the International (see also my listing for the MT110 unit), it is a well known Lucas fitment of the 30's-40's era, and I am sure would have been sometimes fitted. It is fitted with a twin filament Rear Light/Stop Light bulb as well - which on modern roads I think is essential.

Lovely reproduction of the distinctive Miller 'STOP' rear light unit, as fitted to Vincent road bikes as well as a few others of the immediate Post-War period. So nice you might want to consider fitting it to your Norton! (I have one fitted to my Vincent Comet)

Reproduction 3.5" rubber cable tie, of the 'wobbly' type. suitable for securing wiring and cables on the smaller frame tubes. Sold as a pack of 5. (Note: this particular type does sometimes have slight rubber flashing, easily cut away with a pair of nail scissors)

Reproduction cable tie, of the John Bull 'parrallel' type, which has 'John Bull' name on the moulding. This item is for Size 'A' (also inscribed on cable tie) which are 3 3/4" long . suitable for securing wiring and cables on the smaller frame tubes. Sold as a pack of 5. For the larger Norton frame tubes, it is easiest to 'mix and match' these cable ties with the other sizes to make 'tandem' cable ties (i.e. two cable ties joined together), dependent on how many cables or wires you are trying to secure

Reproduction cable tie, of the John Bull 'parrallel' type, which has 'John Bull' name on the moulding.

Rubber base pad to fit under the Lucas 'hard rubber' style batteries. Ever since the first time I worked on a bike my father always taught me to fit a piece of rubber under the battery to help prevent it cracking - well this pad was made just for that purpose! This pad is 5 3/4" x 3 1/2" dimensions - which is actually meant for the mid 1950's-1960's Lucas type batteries, but can also be used on the earlier narrower type Lucas batteries often fitted to Norton's on rigid and plunger framed versions, simply by trimming an inch or so off one side. (Note: if you have a 'T' shaped battery and battery carrier you do not need to fit this type of mat)

Similar to part 0372 except shorter, this shroud is listed by my supplier as a Lucas HT Lead shroud, but also looks very similar to the competition type Lucas/BTH magneto cable shroud, so could be used for either purpose

This is the pressed steel clip and screw that is used on Lucas headlight rims, to secure the rim to the headlamp shell. Sorry, but the screw has got a Posi-drive '+' style head, not a slotted head, which would be more correct for 30's/40's style headlamps.

These interesting little hard rubber discs are formed in a curved shape so they can be used on smaller frame tubes and handlebars for either protecting paintwork from rubbing or protecting wiring/cables. Although they are solid, on the inside there are two indents so they can be easily drilled for threading through a plastic tie down clip. Sold in packs of 3

As the description implies, this is the special slotted nut/screw that was used to secure the Lucas dynamo to the magneto (Lucas Mag/Dyno's) fitted to all Norton road-going models from 1930's to 1950's. This screw is very nicely made and identical to original, but in stainless Steel

Good quality (UK sourced) reproduction of the famous Altette Model HF1234 6 volt horn, as fitted to all Norton roadgoing singles from the 1930's through to the 1950's. Cast iron body, and when I plugged one up to a battery made a good sound, just like the original. I will shortly be fitting one of these to one of my own bikes. Note: this horn is 6 volt, as per original Norton, however, I can also obtain a 12 volt version by special order

Mounting bracket for mounting Altette horn on the chassis. I particularly like this item as it has the correct diamond shaped reinforcing plate around the mounting hole, unlike some cheaper copies I have seen

Good quality reproduction of the Lucas 31482A type dip switch, as was original fitment on all Norton singles (including SOHC International) from mid 1930's to late 1940's, with correct diamond shape switch (not round)

Good quality reproduction of the Lucas LU6204A type chromed horn button. The same as item 0473 except this one is to fit earlier 1" diameter handlebars, as was original fitment on Norton singles (including SOHC International) in the mid 1930's

Good quality reproduction of the Lucas Type U39 31340 Headlamp switch, as was original fitment on all Norton singles (including SOHC International) from mid 1930's to mid 1950's, Switch has 3 positions - 'OFF', 'L', 'H'. Note, some later Norton's were fitted with the same switch with a longer switch handle, we can also supply these by special order.

Good quality reproduction of the Lucas Type 5033234 Brake Light switch, as was original fitment on Norton singles (including SOHC International) late 1940's to mid 1950's, I can remember removing an original one of these from my first 1950's ES2.

This product listing is for an excellent quality modern 'Solid State' dynamo regulator which can be used to replace original 'insides' of the notoriously unreliable Lucas 33018a type mechanical regulator, fitted to most Norton single roadgoing models both pre and post war.

This is a genuine Lucas - empty battery box of the large rubber (B38-6) type - which is the type of 6v battery originally fitted to a number of british bikes of the 40's/50's/60's - including both Norton and Vincent singles. It was also not unusual to fit this type of battery to Norton singles of the 1930's, as a replacement for earlier T-Shape batteries which were discontinued after WWII.

This empty battery box is a modern (hard rubber) replica of the original Lucas type (but still manfactured by Lucas), but does not have any battery inside it - instead it is ready to take a modern 'gell cell' battery. In the 3rd and 4th photograph I show one of those modern dry cell batteries (not included) - which will fit snugly in the case. Note: I may shortly be offering thes dry cell battery for sale as well, email for details when placing order if you would like to order one

Reproduction of the black bakelite cover fitted to Lucas Magdyno Dynalmo's of the CVC/2 brush type that were typically fitted to all Norton roadgoing models from approximately 1937 - to the early 1950's.
